hey jerry do you have any problems with to much wieght on the steer axle? my plan so far is to paint the double bunk rootbeer brown and creme, im biulding the frame with a 4' (1.92") extension and air ride. im thinkin bout puttin a roof mount a/c unit on it and a wing air deflector, dual airbreathers and stacks. if you have any suggestions for me please dont hold back, lol im sure you had a fun time trying to keep that body contour also. dennis -

hi gregg and welcome to the forum, i beleive that cat engine should be white. and as far as finding a reefer unit trailer, they are on ebay all the time. usually for around $50 or you can order a dry box for about $30 then go to sourkrouts and pick either a carrier or a thermo king reefer unit to put on. enjoy your biuld and share some pics if ya can dennis -

here is a pic of the 2 international 4070b glue bombs ive been workin on. this is first time tryin to put pics so i hope it works! lol this is cabs after interior out and off frame before any cutting this is what they look like as of 6/29/10 did alot of body work, the double sleeper had a bunch of cracks i had to fix lol they both were a trainwreck. now they primed and still have lots of body work left! youll notice i only have the back air vent on drivers side, figured i would have a closet and tv stand behind drivers seat. incase any body is curious about the double bunk length it is a 106" Uploaded with ImageShack.us im tryin to figure this pic thing out, please be patient with me. dennis
